You've got my once nimble brain charged up, what are the dimensions on the hog wire and do you shoot over or through?
Hunting out of a Blind

4 or 5" squares more or less. There are several different sizes, some get narrower (verticle) close to bottom. These are the heavy hog pannels (not rolled wire) cut down to size. They come about 4' wide, perfect height for resting rifle on top but you have to cover top w/split hose to cover some pretty sharp edges. I can get some exact measurements if needed, but they are pretty well standard sizes I believe. They are heavy wire, stiff enough that they provide a pretty stable rifle rest (shooting over), especially if you sit in a corner & hang one elbow over one panel and rest rifle on top of other.
The only downside I ran into over the years was a stinking gemsbok (I assume it was one particular one) took a dislike to one I left all season on a good sendero. Never saw him do it, but we'd find that blind up to 25' away, sometimes hanging up in a tree. He would obviously hook the thing with his long hors and fling it off into the brush repeatedly.
